tip LEAN DUCK

Duck has a reputation for being fatty, but the actual meat is very lean. For leaner duck breasts, simply remove the layer of fat from the meat. What you’ll be left with is a fat-free duck fillet that looks a bit like (and can be treated like) venison. If you want to use the leaner version in this recipe, fry the sugar, curry paste and fish sauce in a splash of oil, then simply slice the raw duck breast and add it to the curry in step 3.
